This is the first Oscar nomination for Kristen Stewart. She's a been an indie darling and critic favourite for years now, so it's good to see her get the Academy recognition she's long deserved. Both Penélope Cruz and Jessica Chastain are outsiders for the nomination, but Best Actor looks as expected.
Licorice Pizza has been a hit among critics, but its depiction of a relationship between a teacher and her much younger s🦹tudent h💖as caused a split among movie-goers.
This is the fourth year in a row that a film in a foreign language has been nominated for Best Picture, 🥃showing the Academy is finally opening up to the idea that these films can compete on the same level as English language ones. Interestingly, Flee, starring Riz Ahmed, is the first film to ever be nominated for Best Documentary, Best Animated Film, and Best International Feature🅘 Film.
Natural Oscar contenders Dune, Pꦉower of the Dog, and West Side Story have picked up a fair few nominations between them, but Tick, Tick... Boom! has majorly missed out. Lady Gaga also failed to pick up a nod for her excellent performance in House of Gucci.
